Moray Town Centre Health Check 2016

Elgin Town Centre Health Check 2016

There have been various retail activities across Elgin Town Centre since 2014. Two national multiples, Brighthouse and Poundworld, took up relatively large units within the town centre. Other smaller independent new outlets have included Pencil Me In on Batchen Street, Doolittle Doggy Daycare on Lossie Wynd and Curious Minds Education Centre. In comparison to 2012 it was notable that there was an increase in Electronic Cigarette or “Vaping” outlets and also independent shops offering mobile/pc repairs and accessories. In contrast to this there was a decrease in pay-day/cash for gold outlets which had emerged in the 2014 Audit. Vacancies have been created with the closure of Junners toy shop, Sign of the Times, Partco, Café Ecosse and other units.

There has been movement between premises by a number of retailers and service providers. For example Dorothy Jacks moved from the High Street into the former New Look in the St Giles Centre, Cotton Loom moved from Batchen to Commerce Street, Esquire moved further west up the High Street, Crafted Moray moved from the High Street into a unit on South Street formerly occupied by Sound and Vision and the Citizen Advice Bureau moved from Batchen to Moss Street. Whilst in some cases this movement between units has resulted in vacancies, the movement within the town centre suggests continued confidence in the location by existing retailers.

Diversity of Uses and Vacancies

The Space in Use Survey was undertaken on the 19 July 2016.

Pedestrian Counts

Pedestrian counts were undertaken on Thursday 23 June 2016. The weather was dry with sunny spells which is comparable to the conditions in 2014. It is notable that the count took place on the day of the EU Referendum and some schools may therefore have been off. Also previous years pedestrian counts were undertaken in September. These differences may account for some of the differences highlighted.

The main changes across the High Street appear to have been within restaurant/takeaways with these changing hands rather than becoming vacant. Home Comforts now occupies the former FUSED store and a Turkish Barber now occupies the former Blythswood shop. A photographer is now occupying 132 High Street which had been vacant in 2014. There have been several new vacancies including the Hydro Electric shop, Oh How Sweet and Sweet Explosion. The former TESCO store on Gordon Street is no longer counted as it has been demolished since the 2014 survey. This has significantly reduced the vacant floorspace in comparison to 2014.
